Cherissa Smallwood, pilot of The NitroandLace.com Pro Fuel Dragster Team, is elated to be racing her forth of five IHRA Nitro Jam Races slated on her teams schedule for the 2011 racing season.

Smallwoods team, led by her father Ron Griffis, have had their hands full since the San Antonio Race earlier in the year.

"We had a gremlin that weekend that was really difficult to diagnose in two days of racing" said Smallwood, "we never got to really look at everything after Baton Rouge as Mike Manners was kind enough to allow us to leave the car and rig at his home in Houston so we could save on fuel and obvious wear and tear on the rig.

"This weekend, we have redone some things that we are very excited about and looking forward to turning our whole program around, for not only the great IHRA Fans in Pennsylvania, but all of our IHRA Family as well."

On Monday, following the event, Smallwood will be on the Sam Auxier Jr Radio Show at www.SamAuxierJr.com at 6:05 Eastern Time with Co-Host Kristin Moeser.

Pro Fuel will be racing on May 20th and the 21st at 8:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. both days.
